how to predict the weather in north antrim

I'm teaching year 8 and 10 Geography at the moment. I have to admit that this has turned out to be more difficult than I had expected it to be.
I used to enjoy Geography when I was being taught it. I just assumed teaching it would be the same. It's not. I'm having to work hard to learn what I will be teaching, and anticipate potential questions or difficulties the pupils may have.

My year 8s are looking at weather. The biggest difficulty I have with this topic is explaining why, despite the fact that we've had nothing but glorious weather all week, and despite the BBC forecast predicting bright sunshine, when I am on bus duty it always, ALWAYS, rains.
